Principal Modeling Simulation and Analysis Engineer or Senior Principal Modeling Simulation & Performance Analysis Systems Engineer – Baltimore, MD. 100% on-site.

• Accelerate delivery of capabilities through performance engineering, software integration, and test activities leveraging credible modeling, simulation, experimentation, and analysis.
• Apply MS&A techniques across all phases of radar systems engineering to assess, validate, and optimize system and subsystem performance, working with IQ data from simulated and real-world collections.
• Perform performance-focused modeling and simulation on high-performance computing grids, conduct trade studies, and generate systems engineering documents, reports, and operational documentation.
• Utilize MSE&A frameworks to support software integration, algorithm development, and radar mode validation, ensuring consistency between modeled environments and real-world data.
• Assess system capabilities by linking requirements to performance metrics and mission threads, defining and verifying interfaces, and supporting integration and test activities.
• Support systems engineering radar algorithm validation by tracing IQ data through the radar processing chain, comparing modeled and collected data, and identifying performance shortfalls and corrective actions.
• Plan, generate, and execute verification and validation artifacts supporting system design verification testing and system acceptance testing, including test plans, procedures, and data review packages.
• Develop and improve performance models, simulation frameworks, and analysis tools, including physics-based radar models, threat and environment models, and command-and-control interactions.
• Perform large-scale data analytics, probabilities, and statistics, including design of experiments techniques.
• Collaborate with interdisciplinary teams to diagnose performance issues, recommend design changes or tuning, and ensure integrated solutions meet requirements.
• Generate and present technical material for internal and external customer briefings, technical reviews, and design/test readiness events.
• Innovate to solve problems and identify improvements across MSE&A products, performance analysis workflows, and integration/test approaches.
• Develop, integrate, and use advanced graphical user interfaces and visualization tools to explore, validate, and communicate performance results.
